- 91.010.30 Technical aspects
1.1.1 Scope of Eurocode 4
Eurocode 4 applies to the design of composite structures and members for buildings and civil engineering works. It complies with the principles and requirements for the safety and serviceability of structures, the basis of their design and verification that are given in EN 1990: 2002 – Basis of structural design.
Eurocode 4 is concerned only with requirements for resistance, serviceability, durability and fire resistance of composite structures. Other requirements, e.g. concerning thermal or sound insulation, are not considered.
Eurocode 4 is intended to be used in conjunction with:
EN 1990 Basis of structural design
EN 1991 Actions on structures
ENs, hENs, ETAGs and ETAs for construction products relevant for composite structures
EN 1090 Execution of steel structures and aluminium structures
EN 13670 Execution of concrete structures
EN 1992 Design of concrete structures
EN 1993 Design of steel structures
EN 1997 Geotechnical design
EN 1998 Design of structures for earthquake resistance
Eurocode 4 is subdivided in various parts:
Part 1-1: General rules and rules for buildings
Part 1-2: Structural fire design
Part 2: General rules and rules for bridges.
